Haha never. This was my first full blown “fired.” I’ve been laid off in 08 during that whole mess, and in ‘15 I blew my knee out and couldn’t walk for 6 months, couldn’t keep me on the payroll during that down time. So this was a huge blow to my ego for sure. But lessons are always learned. This new venture is challenging, but I can already tell the difference in how they treat their employees.

Glad you are out camping during this tough time, that is the best thing to do in good but also bad times. I am retired now but, I had faced a handful of work situations like yours in my work life. Each time after I went through the hell later it turned out for the better with time, but it was hard to see that at the time. The great thing is that you have a understanding partner in life (I did to). Camping in nature is the best for healing and helping to see things with a fresh lens. Congrats on a new upcoming job.

I've been where you are right now. I have a degree in Machine Tool Technology. Worked 15 years as a CNC machinist for the same company. Then one Monday morning I went in to work and was laid off with no warning whatsoever. No reason given, except "economics". I was 60 years old. No job for the first time in my life, and , for some reason, nobody out there wanted to hire a 60 year old machinist, no matter how qualified I was. To make it worse, I had just bought my new Tacoma five days earlier. Hadn't even made the first payment yet. But we got through it. In spite of all the worries and uncertainty about the future, we are still here. You will be, too. And, as far as trigger therapy goes, I've found that a .223 bolt gun shooting a 10" disc at 500 meters is just as much fun as the big guns at 1000 meters + at half the cost (just so you know 🤣).
@ChambersFamilyOverland 2 ай бұрын
Yes! Very similar. I should have been a little more “aware” with the changes that were happening around me, and the differences of opinions and personalities. But I was doing my job well, so I was a bit oblivious. Horrible feeling. Ok, so this really tickles my curiosity haha. A .223 bolt would be a BLAST!!! I have a handful of repairs/upgrades to make to the steering on the truck, but I’m adding this to my wish list! Haha

For those who don't know, the glass isn't trash* It is volcanic Obsidian the source of arrowheads and knives. Mt. Paulina to the south is a volcano with two lakes and built out of obsidian with huge flow of glass. Glass Buttes are volcanic vents. Some cautions for the area. Don't camp up high above the lower ground plane/flats as this is a highly prone area for lightning as attested to by all the Apache Tears present in the area. Apache Tears are formed by lightning striking the ground. And if up high hiking around, if the weather looks like it might develop lighting, get back to camp and shelter, preferably in a vehicle or camper which isn't near a tree. Ticks. I for years have used Irish Spring soap to prevent a tick or ticks. Make a suds and apply it to all openings in your clothing. Around your ankles, waist, shirt sleeves, and neck. If you have a button up shirt, along the open line of the shirt on your stomach and chest. Don't wear shorts. In the fifty plus years I have been applying Irish Spring in this manner, I have never been bitten. i always carry a bar of Irish Spring in my Console or glove box or camper. Rattle snakes. Walk with a heavy footfall and slowly. Stay away from brush in the heat of the day. Rattle snakes like to hang from the branches to cool and in the shade of brush. And on warm nights use a flashlight as they often hunt at night. *(though, no doubt there is real trash left by numbskulls who have no real appreciation of nature).

Yes I’m just over the limit. The new rack and setup is lighter. It’s the unfortunate side effect of a diesel in a 3/4 ton setup. I know for a fact the frame and axels are the same as a 1 ton, but I have a coil rear end vs leaf spring of the 3500. In fact on paper I’m probably LESS then factory rating because my suspension is considerably softer for off-roading. I’m working on another change that will lighten me up even more, but will probably be right around 9800 still 😂
